Jean Nouvel's Golden Angel building(2000) in Prague, Czech Republic.
The Golden Angel not only was built for the subway station of "Andel[angel]", the center building of the Angel City as well. The image of an angel from Wim Venders' films "Wings of Desire" was serigraphed on 32.5m glass curtain wall. Actually it seems to be the angel looking after renovation of the city and Smichov area.
